My wife and I are getting closer to an exchange on a flat in Heath Hayes and my parents have sent the 10% deposit to my property lawyer. I am now told that as the deposit has not come from me my property lawyer needs to make a notification to my bank. Apparently, in also acting for the mortgage company he must inform them that the balance of the purchase price is coming from anyone other than me. I disclosed to the lender concerning my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really necessary for him to raise this?
The solicitor is duty bound to check with lender to make sure that they are aware that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own resources. Your solicitor can only report this to your mortgage company if you agree, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.
